| Résumé: | CdS/TiO2 heterojunction nanofibers have been successfully synthesized through the photodeposition of CdS on 1D TiO2 nanofibers that were prepared via a facile electrospinning method. The as-synthesized samples showed high photocatalytic activities upon selectively oxidizing a series of alcohols into corresponding aldehydes under visible light irradiation. TEM observations revealed that CdS was closely grown on the TiO2 nanofibers. Moreover, it was found that the CdS/TiO2 nanofibers that were photodeposited for 4 h exhibited the highest catalytic activity, with a conversion of 22% and a selectivity of 99%, which were much higher than those of commercial CdS. In addition, we also discuss the photoabsorption performance and the reaction mechanism of the photocatalytic oxidation of alcohols |
